What is Tax Deferred Exchange?

A tax deferred exchange is simply a method by which a property owner trades one property for another without having to pay any federal income taxes on the transaction. In an ordinary sale transaction, the property owner is taxed on any gain realized by the sale of the property. But in an exchange, the tax on the transaction is deferred until some time in the future, usually when the newly acquired property is sold.

These exchanges are sometimes called tax free exchanges, because the exchange transaction itself is not taxed. In an exchange, a property owner simply disposes of one property and acquires another property. The transaction must be structured in such a way that it is in fact an exchange of one property for another, rather than the sale of one property and the purchase of another.

Today, a sale and a reinvestment in a replacement property are converted into an exchange by means of an exchange agreement and the services of a quality intermediary-a fourth party who helps to ensure that the exchange is structured properly.

Misconceptions about Exchanging

People often fail to consider tax deferred exchanging as an investment strategy because they are misinformed about the requirements of exchanging. However, once their misconceptions have been cleared up, property owners usually find Section 1031 is worth considering. One common source of confusion is that people often mistake exchanging for a rollover of a principle residence (under Section 1034 I.R.C.). In both cases, the tax is deferred, but in the case of section 1034, the taxpayer must rollover, or replace, his or her principle residence by buying a new principle residence within 24 months of selling the old one. No exchange is required. On the other hand, Section 1031 requires that an exchange take place. Both Section 1031 and Section 1034 are strategies available to taxpayers, but they are used in different circumstances and have different requirements.
